collective.task 2.2

Tasks management for Plone.

Tasks management for Plone.

This package provides:

• a new content type called task

• a task behavior, with the same fields as a task

• a fielset task behavior, with the same fields as a task

• a task container behavior, just providing a marker interface

A task has the following fields:

• a task description: richtext field.

• an assigned group: vocabulary of plone groups (can be redefined). Master field for assigned user

• an assigned user: vocabulary of plone users. Slave field of selected assigned group.

• an enquirer: user proposing the task (authenticated user by default)

• a due date

Assigned group and assigned user are local role fields (dexterity.localrolesfield). This last product permits to configure (on a dexterity type) the local roles to give on each workflow state, to the selected principal of each role field on the object.

The default workflow for a task contains the following states:

• created (initial state)

• to assign

• to do

• in progress

• realized

• closed

From the created state, you can choose the transition “to do”. There are 2 cases:

• if an assigned user is already selected, an auto transition passes to “to do” state

• if no assigned user is selected, a reviewer must choose one and manually pass to “to do” state

This add-on is tested using Travis CI. The current status of the add-on is :
